Today, we honor our nation’s veterans for their service, and we thank military families for their sacrifices.
We also want to note that the military has excellent child care programs. The documentary series “The Raising of America” highlights these programs in one of its episodes. (The segment about the military beings at 29 minutes and 16 seconds.)
And according to an article from the Future of Children:
“The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) receives wide acclaim for offering accessible, affordable, high-quality child care to military service members and their families. The military sees child care as an essential element of combat readiness and effectiveness, so it places a high premium on the quality of children’s experiences in military child-care facilities, and on assuring families that their children are well cared for.”
